MURDER OR SUICIDE. Finding of a Dead Man Cass County Last Saturday. FAROO, in March 28.—A man whose name ifc eappoaed to be Arthur, Ghadeayn, from letters fonnd on his peraou, wa» die covered Saturday last near Gardner, Ci county, by Deputy Sheriff McLaren The search of the ground where the body lay brongbt to light a 32-calibre revolver nearly new with only one good cartridge remaining in the cylinder, the others having been discharged. In searching the remains pocket book containing •21.61 in cash and a promissory note for 460 made by Scott Richardson to Arthur Chadyean was found. In his pockets were many minor articles, such ah men are wont to carry, and a package of let ters. The latter were of a decidedly racy nature and were from women and men, one dated from Moorhead, March 19tb, h«ing the last. They were all addressed to Arthur Ghadeayn. It was evident, from the fact that bis money was undis turbed, that robbery was not the motive for the crime, if suoh it should prove. A coroner's jury from Fargo went to the scene and, after considering the evi dence, returned a verdict of suicide. The deputy sheriff says in the Argus: "The body must have been there two or three days, because direotly under the body there was unmelted snow—it snowed on Monday afternoon. He was lying directly on his face with his head bent under him as if he had been thrown from a rig. A soft felt was jammed down over his nose. The hat was frozen to him and the ground. I pulled the hat to one side and caught a glimpse of blood under his left eye and under his head a pool of congealed blood. He had on a heavy overcoat buttoned around and dressed well throughout. I remarked that there was no mud on his shoes or clothes." UNCLE SAM'S LIBERALITY. How the Poor Indian Gets Paid For His Services. Devils Lake Inter-Ocean: S. H. Elrod, special disbursing agent of the govern ment, arrived Sunday and in the after noon was taken over to Fort Totten business was to pay off the scouts who aided the whites during the Sioux rebellion in 1862. These scouts and their descendants are now scattered all over Minnesota and the Dakotas, nearly every reservation having one or more among its inhabitants. The Totten reservation is said to contain the largest number and here Mr. Elrod has paid out about $35,000 of the $126,000 appropriated for this purpose. He completed the work of paying on Thursday. This money has made some of the Indians richer than they ever were before or ever will be again and they show a very natural inclination to get rid of it as rapidly as possible, although using generally very good judgment in mtfcing purchases. A number of them have bought horses. They refuse to look at anything except young mares of good size. After buying a team, naturally a hew set of harness would follow and George Jamieson has been doing a rush ing business in that line. Wagons, buggies, sleighs and outters have also been purchased in limited numbers. Thompson, Schultz and Wineman have done a good business in ready made slothing. So also have the general stores where dress goods, shawls, eaps, gloves, canned goods and provisions have been the articles most generally called for. They have also purchased a number of cook stoves, as well as tinware and out lery. The purchases made, with hardly an exception, indicate that the Indians are as competent to manage their own busi ness and are as little given to spending their money foolishly as the average white man. WORLD'S FAIR MATTERS. Information About North Dakota's Preparations for the Big Event. H. 0. Southard, president of the North Dakota World's fair board, has the fol lowing communication in a Fargo paper, relating to the board's organization. He says:• I have observed within a few days that our state papers are displaying more interest in the relations of North Dakota to the World's fair than formerly and also a disposition to know some thing about what was being done in the interest of the state. Our state board has not held a meet ing since the appointment of Mr. Tyler and does not expect to meet until his return, and I therefore will take the lib erty myself of endeavoring to gratify somewhat this very natural interest— not to'say curiosity. In the first place when we formed an organization we appointed Mr. McKen zie to the office of executive manager, believing that, from his experience, energy, ability and business connections he was the very man for the olaoe. Without formally accepting the posi tion he went east during the summer and we were unable to communicate with him. There was no special neces sity for his services at the time and the matter drifted along some months, until a few weeks ago, when the board met and appointed Mr. Tyler, it being understood that Mr. MoKenzie's health would forbid his undertaking the work. Meantime the members of the board visited Chicago and personally ac quainted themselves with the officials in charge an acquired a knowledge of affairs without which intelligent work could not be pursued in this state. And I may say right here that the salary of a manager whioh was saved during this time, his duties being performed by members of the board who are under no salary, more than paid the expenses of this trip. At this time also, a site for the state building was secured which is aa choice as any on the grounds and plans and specifications secured foi a building for headquarters for the citizens of this state and for our special characteristic exhibit The board also arranged to solicit 91 subscriptions from the people of the state for a special building fund, and are now having oertifioates to be used in that work printed. Immediately upon his appointmsnt Mr. Tyler, under the instruction of the board, started east upon a difficult task. I need only say of it that he is working upon it with intelligence and enthusiasm and is meeting with splendid success so far, and that upon the result of bis work in the east will largely depend the suc cess of our standing at Chicago during the fair. We expeot Mr. Tyler back in a short time, when all these contemplated plans will be pushed and new plans laid before the people and their assistance obtained, if possible, in making our work vigoious, sensible and profitable to the state.
